Ivanka Trump Aids in Planning White House UFC Event for America’s 250th Anniversary
Ivanka Trump, the daughter of former President Donald Trump, is stepping in to help organize an exciting UFC event at the White House as part of the upcoming celebrations for America’s 250th anniversary of independence in 2026. Known for her love of the sport, Ivanka will assist in the planning but won’t hold an official position for the event.
A close source mentioned that Ivanka is thrilled to collaborate with UFC President Dana White to create a memorable event for fans across the nation. This significant occasion is expected to contribute to the “America250” festivities, which will include various events at national parks, battlefields, and historic locations.
President Trump first mentioned the UFC fight during a speech at the Iowa State Fair, expressing enthusiasm for hosting such a unique event on the White House grounds. “Does anybody watch UFC? We’re going to have a fight — think of this — on the grounds of the White House. We have a lot of land there,” he remarked.
Dana White later confirmed that preparations are well underway, promising an unforgettable show to honor the 250th birthday of the United States. He noted that the fight would be aired live on CBS, emphasizing its unique nature.
Ivanka’s involvement in the planning aligns with her history, as she previously served as a senior advisor in her father’s administration. Though she has maintained a lower public profile since then, her role in this celebratory event reflects a return to the forefront of public engagement in a festive and patriotic manner.
White has expressed that every top fighter is eager to be part of this historical event. Excitement is building as both Ivanka and Dana White prepare for one of the most talked-about UFC fights to take place at the White House, marking a significant milestone in American history.
